By 2050, the world will need to find enough food to feed 10 billion people. That’s a lot of mouths to feed, and some estimates suggest that food production will have to increase by 70% in order to meet demand. Currently, one in nine people in the world do not have enough food to eat.

There’s a big debate going on about the use pesticides across Europe at the moment. Given that the UN Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) estimates that up to 40% of global crop yields are lost each year due to pests, can food production be increased without relying on conventional farming techniques such as pesticides?

There’s an extra complication. It’s obviously not enough to feed more people. Given that we live on a planet with limited resources, it’s also important to grow food in a sustainable way. That means preserving and protecting our environment and growing crops without degrading soil quality, biodiversity, or creating too many carbon emissions.

How to prevent insects, bacteria, viruses and weeds from infesting fruit, vegetable and other plant and food consignments and then spreading across the world is the focus of a four-day gathering of international experts which began at FAO today.

WHY DO WE NEED PESTICIDES

With Pesticides EU regulations are in place to ensure pesticides are used

safely and sustainably.

Yields from organic farms are on average 19-25% lower (even 40% lower for some crops) than yields from

conventional farms.

Even organic farms use pesticides (though the approved list is small).

Without Pesticides

Roughly 1/3 of food produced globally is lost or wasted every year.

We have enough food to feed 10 billion people if we tackle inequality and food waste.

Overuse of pesticides leads to pollution and biodiversity loss.

The annual meeting of the Commission on Phytosanitary Measures (CPM), the governing body of the International Plant Protection Convention (IPPC), brings together senior plant health specialists from the 181 member countries.

The CPM’s task is, among other things, to review and establish International Standards on Phytosanitary Measures that govern how plants and plant products should be handled during movement and transport. It also endorses ways to support developing countries improve the effectiveness of their National Plant Protection Organizations.

The purpose of the standards is to minimize the risks of plant pests circulating across borders and regions in the increasingly vast context of global trade.

“A staggering $1.1 trillion worth of agricultural products are traded internationally each year, with food accounting for more than 80 per cent of the total. In this more and more globalized world, we need to increase our efforts to protect food security and the environment, and ensure safe trade from pests of plants.

Ants are the

longest living insects

Unlike some bugs who might

only live for days or even hours,

the queen ant of one particular

species, the Pogonomyrmex

Owyheei – can live up to

30 years!

Some ant species are

asexual!

Rather than going down the

traditional route of reproduction,

some Amazonian ants have taken to

reproduce via cloning. It is reported

that the queen ants copy themselves

to genetically produce daughters,

resulting in a colony with no

male ants.

Ants are social

insects which live in colonies

The colony, also called a formicary, is made up

of one or more egg-laying queens and a large

amount of female “worker” ants who tend to

her, build and maintain the nest, forage for

food and care for the young. Male ants have

wings and their only function is to mate with

the queen.

Ants hold the record

for the fastest

movement in the

animal kingdom.

The aptly named species of

trap jaw ant, can close its jaws

at 140mph, which it uses to

kill its prey or injure predators.

The bullet ant is

said to have the most

painful sting in the world!

Living in humid jungle

conditions such as the

Amazon, their sting has

been compared to being

hit by a bullet!

“ “


11CAUTION


Ants have two

stomachs. That’s right,

ants have two stomachs,

and it’s not because

they are greedy.

One of their stomachs is for

holding food for their own

consumption, and the second

one is to hold food to be

shared with other ants.

KOMBAT TAG ANT AND ROACH BAIT STATIONRegistration No. L9780 ACT 36 OF 1947

KOMBAT ANT AND ROACH BAIT STATION is a scientifically test gel bait matrix which has been placed inside a bait station and is effective in controlling common species of ants including Black, Common, Sugar and Garden ants as well as all common species of cockroaches including American, Oriental and German cockroaches and their nymphs.

COMPOSITION Active IngredientFipronil (phenyl pyrazole) - 0.6g/kg

DIRECTIONS FOR USE

TAG ANT AND ROACH BAIT STATION works by attracting the ants and roaches to the bait matrix in the bait station where they feed 24/7 and will continue killing them as long as the bait is available, attractive and not contaminated.

AREA OF PLACEMENT

TAG ANT AND ROACH BAIT STATION may be used both indoors and outdoors. Direct sunlight and water may reduce the residual effect. Placement of TAG ANT AND ROACH BAIT STATION should be out of sight usually in dark, damp and warm areas. These include, but are not limited to, in, under and behind kitchen appliances, preparation tables, sinks, basins, cupboards, shelving and electrical boxes. As certain ant and roach species are excellent climbers it may be advisable to position one or two bait stations in high-level cupboards and voids.

RATE OF APPLICATION

2 – 4 bait stations per 10m². The more bait stations the greater the chance of ants and roaches finding them when scavenging for food. High infestations may require more bait stations. The application of insecticide aerosol and residual surface spray treatments can be integrated into a control programme but it is important that the bait stations are not contaminated as this may discourage feeding. The gel bait matrix in the TAG ANT AND ROACH BAIT STATION is extremely attractive to ants and roaches, and soon after placement and consumption, dead ants and roaches will be evident, usually within 24 hours of treatment. To avoid re-infestation of the area replace the TAG ANT AND ROACH BAIT STATION at least every three months, or more often in the case of heavy infestations.

GARDEN PESTICIDES

1. INTRODUCTION

Why do we need pesticides? Pesticides refers to insecticides, fungicides and herbicides. To protect our plants from insect and/or fungus damage or the competition from weeds for water, plant food and space in the beds. Where do pesticides come from? Companies do the basic research and development of a product at very high costs. For that they get a 20 year patent protection to recoup the costs involved in the development phase. The development phase takes about 15 years which consists of the chemical, biology efficacy and toxicology studies and out of a 100 new chemistry only 3 will reach the final stage.

All agricultural, home, garden pesticides and fertilizers offered for sale in the Republic must be registered with the Department of Agriculture in terms of Act 36 of 1947. To obtain a product registration in terms of the Act, all usage and efficacy claims are scrutinized and only on verification of all application details and claims, will a registration be granted by the Department. For pesticides an L number is allocated and for fertilizers a K number and this number must appear on all approved labels of that specific product.

The label of a product is a legal document and the wording was approved by Act 36 of 1947 and may not be changed without approval of the Registrar.

2. PESTICIDE FORMULATIONS

Virtually all pesticides used as insecticides, fungicides and herbicides are formulated into the most suitable formulation to enhance the efficiency of the specific product and to make them most suitable for application taking the pest and surface into consideration.

Note: Pest can be either an insect, fungus or weed. Some of the most common formulations available are as follows:

3. PESTICIDE PROPERTIES

Pesticides can be grouped into three general classes according to the mode of action, namely :-Stomach pesticides, Contact pesticides and Systemic pesticides. Some pesticides can be grouped in two or more groups like stomach/contact or contact/systemic etc.

On application of a pesticide to a surface for example plant, tiles, wood etc, as a thin layer, it remains to continue its action (called residual action), which can vary from hours to weeks depending on its specific properties and natural factors, i.e. weather, temperature, light and surface type.

Contact pesticides kills on contact of the pest – insect, fungus, weed - and are effective for example against biting insects like beetles.

Stomach pesticides are effective against eating insects for example worms.

Systemic pesticides are effective against sucking insects like aphids.

A number of pesticides, fungicides and herbicides are systemic in action and will penetrate into the leaf or root tissue of the plant and dissolve in the sap stream and be transported to other parts of the plant to kill certain sap sucking insects or fungi present. These compounds mainly move upwards in the plant and will be most effective if the plant is growing vigorously. Some pesticides are only local-systemic where it is only absorbed into the first two layers of cells on plants.

ORMULATIONS DEFINITION

Aerosol dispenser AE Active enclosed in a container, dispersed by depression of a valve.

Dustable powder DP Free flowing powder for dusting.

Emulsifiable concentrates EC A homogenous liquid, diluted in water before application.

Granular Bait GB Small hard round granules containing pesticide for scatter applications as bait, or in soil, or on the plant (funnel stage).

Granule GR Free-flowing solid product of defined granule size range, ready for use.

Bait (ready for use) RB Designed to attract and be eaten by target pests.

4. TOXICITY

All insecticides, fungicides and herbicides must be considered as toxic in terms of storage, handling and application. Herbicides are usually less toxic than insecticides and fungicides. Less toxic formulations to humans, animals and plants (environment) are replacing or superseding older compounds, without compromising efficacy.

Toxicity is conveniently expressed as an LD50 value, i.e. (Lethal) dosage of chemical as mg per kg body weight, that will kill 50% of a random sample, of a population of test animals – e.g. high LD50 – safer formulation like 2000mg/kg; lower figure more toxic like 3mg/kg.If your bodyweight is a 100kg 2000 mg x 100kg = 200kg will be detrimental to you and 3mg x 100kg = 0.3kg of a more toxic product will be the same.

LD50 oral and dermal can be used to determine levels of toxicity for comparative purposes. Note that the LD50 of the pure active ingredient will be more toxic than a formulation containing the same active because a formulation contains less active ingredient. The active ingredient on its own is usually a 90% plus pure but formulations contains anything from 0.0005g a.i /ℓ or kg to 800g a.i /ℓ or kg of the active ingredient.

For home and garden use the more safer products are used because the gardeners using the products are not so well informed as farmers in using the product and the application is also not always so accurate. Apart from some rodenticides that might have a red band no other red band product will be allowed to be used in the home and garden. The tendency is to only have blue and green banded products on the shelves available to homeowners.

There is a whole list of pictograms available to illustrate to users how to use the product especially for those that cannot read. On agricultural pesticides it is compulsory to use all the pictograms but for the home and garden products only two have to be used:

• Store behind lock and key; and

• Wash your hands.

5. POISON GROUP CATEGORIZATION

Pesticides are categorized in four main groups, i.e. I – IV, according to the concentration of the active ingredient used in the formulation.

The system of identification are colour bands used according to the hazard of the formulation and are linked to the WHO Hazard Classification Scheme with specific colours in the Coates and Pantene range of colours :--


6. POISONING

This colour coding system conforms to international norms and practices and includes a UN number for the purpose of packaging standards.Toxicity categories are stated as follows :--

Poisoning must be avoided in all cases when a pesticide is been used. Make sure the containers are solid, leak proof, with appropriate caps and seals and a legal label with all necessary instructions how to use the product, the necessary warnings and precautions to prevent poisoning of people, domestic animals and the environment, damage to plants and crops. Also note the special advisory and emergency numbers on the labels. Seek professional help and advice whenever a poisoning case may occur.

Whenever handling or spraying a pesticide wear protective clothing like:

• Rubber gloves.• Thin cotton overall or long sleeved shirts and long pants.• Thin cotton hat.• Breather mask.

GROUP 1 Containing active ingredients with an oral LD50 of less than 50mg/kg – Extremely Toxic

GROUP II Containing active ingredients with an oral LD50 of 51 – 500mg/kg – Poisonous

GROUP III Containing active ingredients with an oral LD50 of 501 – 5 000mg/kg – Caution

GROUP IV Containing active ingredients with an oral LD50 of 5 000mg/kg

7. STORAGE AND TRANSPORT

Pesticides should be carefully packed in a cool, well-ventilated area, separate from food and feeds. Store herbicides away from insecticides, fungicides and fertilizers.

Transportation must be done in a suitable, ventilated vehicle to avoid breakage and spillage. All the necessary documentation like tremcards, MSDS’s etc should be available on the truck as well as all the necessary decals on the outside of the truck.

Storage area must have bunding to contain any major spills. Store away from any other commodities and combustible products. Emergency equipment like firefighting and first aid equipment should be available. Have emergency service numbers and poison centre numbers clearly displayed.

8. APPLICATION OF PESTICIDES

A pesticide can only perform as good as it was applied. The correct and proper selection and application of garden chemicals is crucial in terms of efficacy or results achieved. A good product applied wrongly will give poor efficacy and on inferior product applied correctly can give excellent results! A quality garden sprayer to apply the product with is therefore a necessity. Recommendations for dosage or concentration (A.I. to water) are clearly indicated on the approved label and should not be exceeded. Never use a product for any other purpose not indicated or registered for on the label.

Also note that the recommended dosage indicated for insecticides and fungicides will be for example 10mℓ /10ℓ water but for herbicides it will be 10mℓ /10ℓ water/ 100 sq. meters. This indicates that the 10ℓ of spray mixture must be applied onto the 100sq meters but in the case of insecticides/fungicides it is a volume spray applied onto a surface, like a plant, to just before drip-off.

When a pesticide will be used the following steps must be followed:

• Identify the problem – insect, fungus, weed.• Choose the right product to use.• Read the label and follow the instructions.• Apply the product according to the label with a suitable sprayer.

The reason for unsatisfactory results can be:

• Wrong product.• Poor application.• Weather conditions.• Surface applied to.

RECOGNIZED METHODS OF SPRAY APPLICATION ARE :--

Cover (application) - A light even application to the whole plant, but not necessarily covering all surfaces. Suitable for systemic pesticides.

Full cover (application) - A thorough application covering all plant surfaces, usually applicable to contact and stomach poisons. Extremely important in the case of insecticides/fungicides.

Spot treatment - A specific application at a particular site or area, mainly herbicides.

Spray applications should be done in early morning or late afternoon in wind free, dry conditions. Droplet size is important from a coverage and spray drift point of view, a well-directed spray is advisable. If only one plant is infested do not spray the whole garden but only the infested plant. By doing this the impact on the environment will be very small and you do not waste product. Repeated sprays might be necessary to get proper control. In the case of fungicides this is very important because you have to spray preventatively in a spray program. With insecticides it is usually a corrective spray when the insects are visible. Herbicides can be applied pre-emergence or post-emergence of the weeds and the control can either be selective, only some weeds will be controlled ex MCPA and others will still grow, or non selective where all weeds spayed will be controlled ex Roundup.
